its seems that EA is ready for the acquisition!!!!

any idea how it will change the gta franchise??

Well, EA has been doing a rather good job about keeping their newly acquired studios intact, BioWare being a prime example.

I smell a future GTA DS.

Well there have been plenty on the PSP already. ^^

I reckon they'll try phase out making games on the ps3 and focus on the 360 :(

i think if T2 accept that will mark the end of the gta franchis(thats my opinion),because all the good franchise got sucked because of EA!!

 lol,why not!!?they will be a gta for all ,even for mobile

This is just the proposal, it's not yet known whether EA will succeed in buying T2 or not. It's very likely they will though, according to several analysts.

lol,go check this site:and read the comments

i found somthing funny:

Now, please, bow your heads and let us remember GTA in a moment of silence..

GTA we will miss you... you brought us gamers so many good times and memories. You will always be remembered as one of the greatest franchises ever

Well...looks like this is going to be the last good GTA game...shame...it really was one of the greatest franchises ever...

i think they were right,gta will never be a gta after EA acquisition!!

 yeah but i think there is a big chance,t2 says that they will check the offers after the release of gtaiv
